Bhaichung Bhutia, former captain of the Indian football team, on the importance of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup said, "I think the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup can create a lot of icons and awareness for girls like my daughters and others.  But it is important that parents support their girl child to play sport because, in India, we get a lot of boys in academies, but very few girls participate in football. So, I think FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup India 2022™ would encourage a lot of parents to allow their daughters to play football."
